comical. I only call what I see. It's tiring having to clean up after idiots who get into the breed and don't know what they are talking about, yet feel the need to put their 2 cents into everything. hint hint, wink wink, and all of that stuff!

Maybe the BYB's in your neck of the woods aren't that stupid, but they are up here. I guess it's a regional thing

Excuse me while I go check on my dogs. I let them out hours ago, I hope they haven't run off or killed each other.

. . . I didn't assume we were the "idiots who get into the breed and don't know what they are talking about," were we??

If you are a newbie then you shouldn't speak about it, right? Your logic makes no sense.

What does this have to do with anything? Was that an attempt at sarcasm, or a joke?

I'm referring to backyard breeders trying to breed for blue and dabbling with Catahoula because of the merle gene in an attempt to breed "blue pitbulls."

Ok I don't have to say anything about the pissing match,but Blue is a dilute gene for the color black so technically blue is just a faded out black.
If you breed two blues together you get an entire litter of blue pups.
And that's it!You don't have to mix anything in the breed to get blue color.
That would be just double stupid!!!

That isn't the first time I've heard of BYB using Catahoulas to breed "blue" pit bulls -- my vet and I were talking a while back about the increasing numbers of poorly bred blues she has seen in her office and she mentioned the use of Catahoulas to me.

And yes it IS double stupid of any BYB to do, but no one ever said that BYBs are particularly smart. If they were smart, they wouldn't be BYBs in the first place.

Never make someone a priority in your life when that someone treats you like an option.

um... ok The reference was made in regards to people breeding trying to get a blue - and the key is... WITHOUT HAVING A BLUE TO BEGIN WITH.

This thread got real stupid real fast didn't it? Personal attacks & name calling are not allowed on this board & we would appreciate it if it stops. People can have disagreements without hurling insults. We also have a nifty little "ignore" button that can be used, you might want to give it a whirl

There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line.

I feel like hitting that 'IGNORE' right about now!

My apologies to a-bull and sue. Let's right this ship!
